No one likes being sick. But when it happens, it sure helps to have someone with the know-how who can quickly figure out what’s wrong, devise a plan to make it go away, and answer all our questions without reservation, no matter how much hand-holding might be needed. For that reason we turned to Castle Connolly, the physician-led, patient-trusted medical data research group whose job it is to evaluate doctors across the country, for a comprehensive directory of the best medical talent in our area. And from this list, we selected six physicians and asked them to debunk myths and clarify questions specific to their chosen specialties.

To maintain its database, Castle Connolly’s experts routinely turn to leaders in the medical profession to identify the MDs who are believed to be the best in their respective specialties and fields. It is from this resource that they assembled their final selections for us to share with you. This list, our most comprehensive to date, includes 393 doctors in fourty-seven specialties. Hopefully you won’t need to refer to it, but we suggest you keep it handy, just in case.
